I am 100% behind and support that all people should be treated with respect no matter their race, sexual orientation, etc., but the BLM organization is something I can not support. 

Exactly. Well said

Election year and the organization is completely political and for you to insinuate otherwise is disingenuous.  However I love football and will ignore these ignorant political pawns while I enjoy the game.

Keep making up ****, Frisco. Every time you thought I was doing something like that, it was the exact opposite and when that was pointed out to you, you disappeared from the conversation like Cali.

I am right here, not going anywhere and you certainly did not defend yourself but simply deflected.  no more politics, it is game day, GO BULLS!

They should have just stoped with their own branding of "United". 

I'm fine with United, but they lost me at BLM. I watch to relax and get away from all the world's bs. Not to sit through athletes complaining about inequality. The same athletes who get into college based not on merit but being able to run fast and jump. If that isn't bias and privilege I don't know what is. BLM is a racist and violent movement. Its silent on the topic of black on black crime, black abortion rates and black fatherless rates. It's an organization that's quick to blame whitey for it's problems without having any accountability of ones own actions. I will never support that movement and any company, person or organization that supports it. Shame that after 21 years of tickets and attendance, this is how it ends for me.

I will. So much extra free time now in the fall. Gonna be great. And with the financial savings, I think I'll spend it on a small vacation. Just think, I'll be hiking in some beautiful national park, while you'll be frustrated with playcalling and poor tackling while having to emotionally handle losses and more letdown from the program. My time sounds more enjoyable. Oh and I won't have to listen to bs politics along the way

I'm happy your making a decision that makes you happy. As for me, I don't let the games get to me like that because it's just a game. I'll be enjoying myself just fine because I can tolerate differing politics and don't have to hide in a bubble.

Well I've brought many points to the table that shows just how political BLM is and you haven't made one counter point as to how it isnt. They call for changes to social POLICIES, economic POLICIES, and what government should and shouldn't do. 

Fire away.

If you'll go back and check, the "they're" I'm referring to there is USF, not BLM ...
